User-Contributed Transcription April 26, '60Dear Jack:Diggles had relayed yourkind offer & I was all setto phone you when we got thenews of my appt. as Fulbrightlecturer at Athens for next year& I took off to the ionospherelike a Redstone missle & forgoteverything - Anyway, thanks!A review copy is enroute. Forsome obscure reason (a slip up, they say) the Press had sentnone to the Sun-Times, so I'llappreciate it if you can get me a �� there too. - In returnI shall certainly watch for Hill &Wang ballots & cast forty or soballots for The Disinherited whichby all means needs to be in print. You may wish to pass the wordalong in literary circles that Iam scheduled to address alearned society (in the Union League Club, no less!) next monthon the topic: "Some Little-KnownLimericks of Ella Wheeler Wilcox."- By the way, I was amused to seeMark Harris' tribute to you in WakeUp, Stupid! - Yours, Merlin
